The 2024 college football season is going to get off to a fun start with the Florida State Seminoles and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets facing off in Ireland.

Aviva Stadium in Dublin will play host to the Aer Lingus College Football Classic on Saturday, Aug. 24. Kickoff is set for 12:00 p.m. ET with a broadcast on ESPN.

For Florida State, it's a chance for head coach Mike Norvell and new quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei to begin the revenge tour after the Seminoles were left out of the College Football Playoff last year.

Meanwhile Georgia Tech and head coach Brent Key will look for an early upset to prove last year's winning record was just the beginning.
